Masque of the Red Death (Maska crvene smrti) (1969)

★★★★ · A RED DEATH "to be respected ... and even feared" · TonyPS214 · 2019-09-09

AN wonderful re-telling of Poe's classic tale! I can recall only one other animated version of Edgar Allan Poe's "MASQUE OF THE RED DEATH (the excellent version in Raul Garcia's 2013 EXTRAORDINARY TALES), but this one, while deviating only slightly from Poe's narrative (please forgive my purism!), without a single spoken word it conveys the growing uneasiness and builds up to a climax that I think Poe would have loved! Worthy of being a major part of any collection of filmed versions of Poe's works!
